The People’s Republic of China (PRC) has instituted an unprecedented system of state-sponsored forced la- bor for Uyghur, Kazakh, Kyrgyz, and other minoritized citizens in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (or XUAR or Uyghur Region, also known as East Turkestan by many people from this colonized region).

Reports of forced labor in the Uyghur Region are legiti- mate and well-supported by documentary evidence and first-person testimony. Due to the near ubiquity of forced labor in the region paired with the inability to conduct credible due diligence, all products made in the Uyghur Region or by transferred Uyghur laborers should be pre- sumed to be made with forced labor.
